Video Tutorials
Bellow are a few quick screen captures made with screenr that show you how easy it is to set up your site. Appart from the first one this is a series of videos each building upon the knowledge of the previous so if you watch them in order you pretty much get the idea on how the theme works ;)
I would highly recommend to watch the videos in fullscreen ;D
Corona Theme Demo 1:
Installation and using the auto importer
This short video demonstrates how you can setup a site that looks almost like my theme demo within 2 minutes. The auto importing script fetches settings, posts and pages from the live demo site and adds them to your installation.
That way you don’t have to start from zero, if you dont want to.
Corona Theme Demo 2:
Setting up the home and blog page and assigning a default layout
This video shows the first steps if you dont choose to use the auto importing script. You will learn how to assign a page to the frontpage as well as as assigning the blog to a static page. The Video then shows how to set the default layouts for pages and blog entries.
Corona Theme Demo 3:
Setting up a page, changing the layout and adding a slideshow with images and video
The focus in this screencast is on creating a single page and modifying the layout to your needs. You will also learn how to use the slideshow manager and see how you can switch between the different slideshows, add images and also see how to embed Video from services like vimeo.
Corona Theme Demo 4:
Using shortcodes with the visual shortcode editor to enhance your post layout
A short screencast that shows the visual shortcode editor that helps grouping your content in a better way. You will see how to add columns, horizontal rulers, drop-caps and icon boxes
Corona Theme Demo 5:
Building improved layouts with the template builder
Now that you know how to set up a basic page and add content its time to build improved page layouts with the drag and drop template builder. The screencast shows how easy it is to create an interesing front page with slideshow, page content, portfolio entries, call to action buttons, headlines and more. And all of that in 5 minutes ;)
Corona Theme Demo 6:
Setting up the menu with the help of your menu manager
Since the theme comes with a menu that allows for neat subtitles this video shows how to add those subtitles.
And in case you are new to WordPress you will of course also learn how to setup a menu in general ;)
Corona Theme Demo 7:
Setting up a portfolio overview page and switching between layout options
Last but not least is a short demo on how to setup a portfolio page and then change the settings of that page, like sortable or not, column count, items per page, etc.
The video doesn’t show how to setup a single portfolio item which basically works as setting up a post or page, as described in Video 2-4.
